Stony Brook State Park's terrain comprises hilly woodlands, a deep gorge with rugged cliffs overlooking three waterfalls and fascinating rock formations. 116 tent and trailer campsites are scattered in the woodlands above the gorge in the upper or south end of the park. Visitors can hike rim, gorge or nature trails, play tennis on park courts, or picnic. Some winter hiking is allowed, but not on the gorge or rim trails.

Stony Brook now offers new "rustic" cabins. These cabins are the perfect in-between for campers who like tents and cabins. Offering protection from the elements, they sleep four, but have no electricity or water. Reservation and out-of-state resident fees also apply.**

*The open status of the trails is weather dependent. We strongly reccomend contacting the park office before your visit by calling: 585-335-8111.

Bow hunting for deer is permitted during season.

Concession Stand: Open 5/18 -9/6, 12pm – 6pm

Shelters/Pavilions: Available May - October.
